Advances in exercise science have enabled increased optimisation of training and an enhanced performance for those taking part in sports, both professionally and recreationally. With this, we have also gained a greater understanding of the long-term health benefits conferred by sport, and the associated physiological changes. This Collection brings together papers which demonstrate recent advances in exercise science, from technological advancements in equipment and prosthetics, to innovative use of machine learning to analyse technique.
